In order to build on Windows the following tools should be installed:

downloaded and installed from https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/#build-tools-for-visual-studio-2017
- Cmake
- (optional) The OpenSSL library. Prebuild binaries can be downloaded from https://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html .

In order to run n2n:
NOTE: To statically link OpenSSL, add the `-DOPENSSL_USE_STATIC_LIBS=true` option to the `cmake` command below.
- If compilation throws a "conig.h: No such file or directory" error, an `include/config.h` file needs to be obtained from an already configured Linux compilation and put into the `include/` directory as discussed [here](https://github.com/ntop/n2n/issues/366).
In order to run n2n, you will need the following:
- The TAP drivers should be installed into the system. They can be installed from
http://build.openvpn.net/downloads/releases (search for "tap-windows")
- If OpenSSL has been linked dynamically, the corresponding .dll file should be available
into the target computer
http://build.openvpn.net/downloads/releases, search for "tap-windows".
- If OpenSSL has been linked dynamically, the corresponding `.dll` file should be available
NOTE: if cmake has problems finding the installed OpenSSL library, try to download the official cmake and invoke it with:
`C:\Program Files\CMake\bin\cmake`
NOTE: If CMake has problems finding the installed OpenSSL library, try to download the official cmake and invoke it with
`C:\Program Files\CMake\bin\cmake`.
NOTE: Visual Studio might not add `MSBuild.exe`'s path to the environment variable %PATH% so you might have difficulties finding and executing it without giving the full path. Regular installations seem to have it reside at `"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\BuildTools\MSBuild\Current\Bin\MSBuild.exe"`
The compiled exe files should now be available under the Release directory.
The compiled `.exe` files should now be available in the `build\Release` directory.
